12 Baubles of Bliss....

Well golly...that was just a blast! I've had the best time making 12 little ornaments for Linda's The 12 Tags of Christmas challenge. Not only are her tags amazing, but ALL the entries that everyone is submitting are sensational. So much inspiration to see. If you're interested, Linda has extended the deadline and you can find out the details here on her blog, The Funkie Junkie and also read about the prizes she's sponsoring from her store, The Funkie Junkie Boutique.

Okay....here it is, number 12

Bauble #12

My ornament went off the rails a bit on this one as I drew my inspiration from the genre of transportation. I thought it would be fun to modernize Linda's tag a bit with a retro station wagon carrying home a Christmas tree. The chill in the air and a cute little couple all bundled up together, out on a crisp winter's evening. I do love gold, so I also added the golden stars and a Christmas sentiment as well.

OMG! Amazing ornament - it brings back lots of nostalgic memories - hopping into the station wagon and visiting for the holiday bringing Christmas Cheer. I can't believe you made all these beautiful ornaments. Each one is a work of art and CRAZY GOOD!!

I love the last tag[bauble] Lisa and seeing them all together they all look just fantastic..I tried to make some, but they look like a kindergarten kid did it,guess I'm not ones for balls!! so will leave these sort of projects to the expert..fantastic.Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year 2014..

Hello QWow...They look amazing all lined up, and with your previous years creations they will juxtapose beautifully on the tree.You have worked really hard to complete this Challenge; I admire your tenacity, unlike me who fell at the first hurdle, you should be so pleased with what you have accomplished especially as so much has been going on in your life these past few months. Great work my friend.Smiles:)Onion.

This one has me grinning ear to ear - so whimsical! You have done an amazing job of putting all these ornaments together and what a sensational collection you now have. I'm so delighted that you were able to play in my little challenge again this year.

With these put on the tree I'm sure you're going to have the best ever looking Christmas tree! I love this as an idea for personal Christmas gifts, and I think a good sized one would look great decorating a window too, which would be a perfect gift for my mother next year...

LOVE #12!!! You are so absolutely awesome at putting your own fabulous spin on things, yet we can still see the original inspiration! Your collection is fantastic and I am sure they look amazing with the others!
